“I know Willie Brown very well. In fact, I went down in a helicopter with him. We thought maybe this is the end. We were in a helicopter going to a certain location together, and there was an emergency landing,” Trump told reporters gathered at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida for his first news conference since the Democratic ticket was announced.

“This was not a pleasant landing, and Willie was, he was a little concerned. So I know him, I know him pretty well. I mean, I haven’t seen him in years,” Trump continued.

Brown, however, rejected Trump’s account as “obviously wrong” during a phone call later Thursday with CNN, saying: “I’ve never been in a helicopter with him in my life.”


Former President Donald J. Trump told a jaw-dropping story on Thursday about nearly dying in a helicopter ride with Willie Brown, the former California politician and ex-boyfriend of his rival, Vice President Kamala Harris.

There was only one problem with the story. Or maybe two. Or maybe three.

It wasn’t the famous former San Francisco mayor on the helicopter flight at all. It was Gov. Jerry Brown, the former governor of California, who bears little resemblance to Willie Brown.

There was also no emergency landing, and the helicopter’s passengers were never in any danger at all, according to Gov. Gavin Newsom, who was also on the flight.

    So, Curt, the NYT and CNN. AGAIN. REALLY!!!!!? Keehee ha, ahhhhhhhhhhh.

    You watch Fox as much as I do. You know d@ng well that the right is totally pumped about the news conference.

    Why don't you tell the truth!!!!!? Bahaha

    HtS,
    You don’t like The NY Times? Okay, let’s get the report from a red state FOX affiliate.

    Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown responded Thursday to Donald Trump’s claim that the two of them survived a near-death experience together when they were once in a helicopter that “went down.”

    According to the former mayor, it never happened.

    Wow! The guy who had Kammy as a kept woman disputes Trump!

    H€ck. I'm doing to start a diary so I can write that down!

    You are such a Good German!!!!!

    Curt,

    I found this report from a source that produces fairly decent journalism. You can see that it notes that several people who are ardently anti-Trump dispute Trump's account.

    But, then, they would, wouldn't they?

    And, understand. I despise Trump. I won't vote for him. But, your TDS and the progressive SwampMedia's TDS are just lame.

    You defended the "dithering and diminished" "feckless dementia-ridden piece of crap's" mind until the Dem smoke-filled room released you. Y'nes ain't convincing anyone that you're concerned about Trump's cognitive decline.

    HtS,
    Now that you accept the fact that Trump told fabricated story yesterday, is Trump demented or duplicitous?

  7. by HatetheSwamp on August 9, 2024 8:08 am

    No. Not at all.

    I'm acknowledging that Trump relayed an anecdote... I heard it live. No doubt you did, too. Baha. I thought it was odd. But, much he says is... and that several strident pro Kammy, anti Trump people dispute it.

    But, again. Curt. You doubt Trump's cognitive ability but you defended President "End of quote. Repeat the line" to the very end.

    Silly.

    So what is it, is Trump demented or duplicitous?

  9. by HatetheSwamp on August 9, 2024 8:16 am

    Who knows? It could be that Willie Brown et.al. are liars.

    What's the difference?

  10. by Curt_Anderson on August 9, 2024 8:35 am
    Your unquestioning gullibility is duly noted. We have established that you will take the word of cult leader Trump, a serial liar, over anybody else. So where are the FOX News reports of Trump surviving “a hard landing” in a helicopter? Surely that would have been big news.

  11. by HatetheSwamp on August 9, 2024 8:48 am

    C'mon man. Gimme a break. Where in all of this did I take Trump's word? I merely refused to take the TDSers' word.

  12. by oldedude on August 9, 2024 9:07 am
    Ditto. Hearsay, not evidence.

  13. by Indy! on August 9, 2024 12:04 pm

    Just another lie from the guy who can't open his mouth without lies falling out.

  14. by Curt_Anderson on August 9, 2024 8:09 pm
    “We have the flight records of the helicopter,” Mr. Trump insisted Friday, saying the helicopter had landed “in a field,” and indicating that he intended to release the flight records, before shouting that he was “probably going to sue” over the Times article.

    When asked to produce the flight records, Mr. Trump responded mockingly, repeating the request in a sing-song voice. As of early Friday evening, he had not provided them.

    Mr. Trump has a history of claiming he will provide evidence to back up his claims but ultimately not doing so.
